May’s Best Deals What to Buy to Save the Most

April showers bring May deals! This month, and thanks in part to Memorial Day sales, you’ll be able to save big at a number of different retailers. But scattered among all of these sales, you’ll be able to find a couple hidden gems that will save you hundreds, if not more. Take a look: Mattresses Mattress stores always seem to be having sales. If you’ve ever driven past a mattress store (or 12) on your way to work or while running errands, you’ve probably noticed the trend. But despite these endless sales, May is one of the best months to buy a mattress, and it all comes down to one day: Memorial Day. You may still need to shop around to find the perfect mattress for your needs, but with every mattress store running sales, that affordably priced pillow top won’t be hard to find.

Refrigerators Like mattresses, many kitchen appliances go on sale during Memorial Day weekend. But when it comes to May deals, not all appliances are created equal. Fridge manufacturers start rolling out new models in June, which means retailers need to get rid of last year’s stock. If you need to upgrade other major appliances in your home (dishwasher, stove, oven, etc.), you’ll want to hold off until late summer/early fall, but be sure to pick up your refrigerator now. What Not to Buy There are two big categories where you aren’t going to find any deals: laptops and Mother’s Day gifts. You’ll end up paying close to full price for these items. Laptop deals ramp up mid- to late- summer, during the back-to-school season. And, well, when it comes to Mother’s Day, if you wanted to save on a gift for your mom, you shouldn’t have waited until the last minute.

May Testimonial “On March 31, 2015, I was involved in an automobile accident that left me with a broken neck, broken back, and a spinal cord injury. This left me paralyzed from the chest down. After a lengthy stay in the hospital and rehabilitation hospital, I began doing both

physical and occupational therapy at Elite Physical Therapy and IMS. I am a C5 quadriplegic who lacks the ability to walk without assistance, and I also have limited hand function. But with the help of some great therapists at both Elite and IMS, I have gained — and continue to gain — the strength and endurance to get my life back to the way it was prior to my accident. I am thankful for all they do for me.” Mark Weatherford
